Hi everyone! My name is Valentina and I am a credentialed elementary school teacher looking to transition back into nannying. I have a bachelors in Psychology as well as a masters in Teaching, and was a 5th grade public school teacher from 2[removed]. Prior to that I was a nanny for many years, both part time and full time. I’ve been a full time nanny since 2023, but have a lot of flexibility in my schedule that I’m hoping to fill! I'm educated in child development from infancy through teenage years and have over 6 years of experience with kids and infants between newborn all the way to school age. I am comfortable with anything between tummy time, bottle feedings, nap training all the way to homework help/tutoring. In addition, I love pets, am fluent in both Spanish and English, have a cleared background live scan check with CPR certification, and have a clean driving record. I love being able to provide families with the security that their child is safe and in good hands as well as making sure to provide an engaging, warm, and safe environment for the kids. I don't take for granted the meaningful relationships that are built along the way. Hope to hear from you all soon!

Hi there! I’m Naweera, and I have several years of childcare experience caring for children ranging from 9-month-old infants to children over 10 years old. I genuinely enjoy creating a safe, calm, and engaging environment for kids. I’m patient, reliable, and warm, and I bring a thoughtful, structured approach to childcare. I also have experience as a tutor, so I’m happy to help with homework across subjects like math (algebra, geometry, trig), English, and the Arts. I’m comfortable with meal prep, bedtime routines, and light cleanup, and I’m also great with pets. I like to keep kids engaged through activities, games, and conversation rather than just screen time. I especially enjoy spending time with children outdoors and fostering curiosity through activities that engage their minds and senses, such as reading, nature walks, creative play, arts and crafts, and other hands-on experiences. Happy to provide references upon request. I can't wait to meet your family!
Hi families! My name is Melany, and I’m a CPR & First Aid certified nanny with over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages from infants to school-aged kids. Working with children has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I truly enjoy helping little ones learn, feel safe, and have fun. Parents describe me as warm, patient, and very responsible. I always arrive on time, communicate clearly, and care for every child as if they were my own family. I’m also an international psychology student, which helps me understand child behavior, emotional development, and how to support kids with gentle, positive guidance. What I offer: • CPR & First Aid certified • 10+ years of childcare experience • Calm, nurturing personality • Strong communication and reliability • Experience with bedtime routines and creative play • Comfortable with pets (I love animals!) I would love to support your family and create a safe, fun environment where your child feels happy and cared for. Looking forward to meeting you!
“Melany was a huge hit with my 3 kids. She played with them them and then got them to bed at night. They have already asked to have her back.”
Hi, Moms and Dads! 👋 I have over 15 years of childcare experience as an au pair, nanny, tutor, and occasional babysitter. Working with children has always been something I genuinely love and enjoy! I'm an energetic, creative, fun-loving, patient, and responsible person. I naturally connect with children and love creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment where they can learn, explore, and have fun. My Childcare Experience I spent two wonderful years as an au pair, caring for children of different ages, from infants to school-aged kids. During my first year, I cared for two adorable children, Luca (3 years old) and Milly (7 months old). My daily responsibilities included preparing meals, feeding, diaper changes, potty training, dressing, school drop-offs and pick-ups, and maintaining their daily routines. Beyond their everyday needs, I loved planning fun and educational activities! We spent our days reading books, singing songs, doing arts and crafts, playing board games, visiting playgrounds, attending Gymboree classes, and exploring museums and the zoo. I also prepared homemade baby food and helped support the children's developmental milestones. During my second year, I cared for Madeleine, a wonderful 6-year-old girl. We had so much fun exploring the Bay Area together! Some of our favorite destinations included the Oakland Zoo, Lawrence Hall of Science, Chabot Space & Science Center, Pier 39, Dolores Park, and Dracena Park. On rainy days, we enjoyed indoor activities such as ceramic painting, ice skating, and indoor play centers. Before becoming an au pair, I also volunteered at a kindergarten for nearly a year. I helped children with their daily routines, meals, and personal hygiene while organizing educational games, creative projects, and activities to teach colors, numbers, and basic skills. A Little More About Me I'm a Chemical Engineer, and I have a master's degree in Engineering Management from CSU, East Bay. I currently work full-time as a Project Manager for a construction contractor. Still, childcare continues to be a meaningful part of my life. I truly enjoy spending time with children, encouraging their curiosity, supporting their development, and making wonderful memories together.I believe that children learn best when they feel safe, happy, respected, and encouraged to be themselves. My goal is always to provide parents with peace of mind, knowing their little ones are in caring and responsible hands.

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
